Joey and Jinger celebrate Christmas on December 24th and December 25th.  On December 24th Joey and Jinger put out milk and cookies for Santa to eat. They also put carrots out for the reindeer. When Joey and Jinger are asleep all snuggly in their beds Santa arrives and leaves them presents under the tree. Santa also fills their stockings with goodies. On December 25th which is Christmas day; Joey and Jinger celebrate Christ. Christ is the reason for the season!! Joey and Jinger open gifts and eat dinner with family and friends.
